Earlier, talking about the movie, Ayushmann had shared that the movie is full on paisa vasool entertainment. He told a media outlet, "It's a slapstick film, a frontbencher, massy film. We are not really touching on any issue here. It's a movie where you don't have to take your brains to the cinema. It's not a woke film."
He carried on, " 'Dream Girl' was something which gave me the highest box office of my career. It really set the tone right and we've taken that tonality forward. So this is a more tier-2 or tier-3, not just multiplexes but also single screen kind of cinema."

, "Dream Girl" featured Ayushmann as Karam, a man known for making a living by impersonating a female voice known as Pooja. The film, which also featured

, Annu Kapoor, Manjot Singh, Vijay Raaz and Abhishek Banerjee, had turned out to be one of the highest grossing movies of 2019.
Four years later, Ayushmann and his gang return with the sequel but the question was how to make the follow-up better than the first part.
"The biggest inspiration for this movie was that the love from the audience for 'Dream Girl'. And, of course, that triggers you to do something else or maybe go to the next level with better and higher stakes. We were always thinking, how should we do this? And

came up with this brilliant idea that Pooja should be revealed, like in the whole flesh and blood. And not just the sound, but also visuals in the film as Pooja. So that's the next level we've cracked in 'Dream Girl 2', said Ayushmann.
